CHAPTER 582: CHAPTER 262: MAGIC FUSION TECHNOLOGY (6K)

World 9805, White Poplar City, by the shores of White Poplar Lake

"Hey, hey, do you think that little one will behave at home?

What if they blow themselves up again with one of those experiments?

I’m really worried..."

Since the departure, the Cat Witch had been incessantly talking on the network.

Clearly, in reality, she could often hold a gun and stay silent for an entire day, yet she was unexpectedly lively online.

At this moment, she was on a tree by the lake, holding a large sniper "cannon" as big as two of her, supported only by a slender branch as thick as a finger.

On the massive alloy cannon body, runes shimmered with a faint Magic Power Radiance, as if light as a feather, without any trace of weight, pointing remotely towards the island in the middle of White Poplar Lake from within the cover of the trees.

"Usually, when we go out to play, you don’t seem to care about the child this much. Now that we’re on a mission, you suddenly start worrying?

Anyway, we witches won’t die anymore. Haven’t we already been bound to the Heroic Spirit Hall?"

Not far beneath her, the Sea Demon Witch casually remarked, also holding an alloy-crafted firearm, moving through the water as if she were alone.

"Oh, that’s different!

If the child hadn’t inherited your interest in research, I wouldn’t be this worried!"

"Didn’t she also inherit your luck? She blew up the house last time and didn’t even lose a hair?

Relax, how are the conditions?"

The Sea Demon Witch swiftly changed the topic, no longer dwelling on the subject.

Though knowing the Cat Witch was doing it on purpose, the Cat Witch was aware that the task was urgent and immediately reported:

"According to the Magic Vision, that Beast King still hasn’t noticed us. Additionally, I’ve already observed the presence of another Tier Five Beast King as per the intelligence."

"Very well, according to His Highness’s orders, this time only that gorilla remains, all others are to be eliminated.

We don’t need so many mutant creatures here anymore.

Youming, how are things on your end?"

The Sea Demon Witch inquired through the network, and soon, not far from the Cat Witch, a witch replied from within the woods:

"I’m called Youming...

Forget it, as you like. There’s only a little more that needs tweaking here. After all, it’s new technology. I’m communicating as quickly as possible, but you know, communicating through the church tends to be slower."

Youming initially wanted to retort but quickly gave up, reporting her progress.

During the network exchange, Youming’s hands did not stop, continually using metallurgy to finely adjust the runes on a peculiar machine in front of her.

Thick with a hemispherical base, a circular alloy plate with a radius of one meter and a metal rod formed a sundial-like shape, the alloy material reflecting occasional sunlight, interplaying with the magical glow from the runes.

It exuded a wondrous feeling of sci-fi mixed with mystery.

And around her, in the dense forests, a series of identical machines had been assembled into a large formation.

It was said these were the latest research results from the group of researchers within the territory, derived from knowledge obtained by a group of sisters they had never met, then adapted and improved by the researchers within the territory.

They were allegedly called magic nuclear bombs or Magic Nuclear Power Plant reactors or something.

However, with her mind that calls caramelization of food a Maillard reaction or mist translucency the Anjali effect, she simply couldn’t understand it.

In fact, her current leader, the Sea Demon Witch, attempted to explain to her once, but she couldn’t get it.

As the dedicated weapons tester within the territory, she only cared about whether these weapons and equipment were practical!

As the last rune was adjusted, confirming no issues remained, Youming immediately reported on the network:

"The Magic Energy Catastrophe Guidance Array has been inspected and is ready to activate anytime."

"Excellent, everyone conduct the final check."

The Sea Demon Witch commanded through the network, and replies from a dozen emerged sequentially.

They were a squad of witches assigned to eliminate the Beast King and the mutant creature settlement behind it.

They were also the test team that had once tested the Power of Faith weapons for the territory.

Since the research into faith-based weapons seemed temporarily halted, they had ample rest time and then began testing for other research projects.

Even this strike against the Tier Six Beast King was undertaken with a mission.

In fact, all the weapons they held were temporary results from various research projects.

With witch efficiency, in just three seconds, the last team member responded. No need for the Sea Demon Witch to give special commands; everyone knew their tasks.

Including the Sea Demon Witch, those responsible for breakthrough combat accelerated underwater, advancing at an extraordinary speed without stirring much undercurrent.

This was akin to spells developed based on Wind Magic, similar to reducing air resistance, allowing the spellcasters to move quickly and stealthily underwater.

Meanwhile, on the shore, the Cat Witch and Youming also began their actions, the former’s large sniper cannon charging, magic power gathering in the barrel, emanating a dangerous glow.

At that moment, the muzzle wasn’t locked onto any target, and the Tier Five Beast King, which had been targeted, remained completely unaware.
